Template talk:Title

This template is still in flux. I am still working on having it properly link to the authors user page in all possible situations. For some it isn't possible at all, but in others it is. When I've had some time to lose the headache following the logic of multiply embedded tags gives me I'll go back to it. NOTE: This template can be used as-is and the format of its output will not change. The work I'm doing on its code is not going to create any user-visible changes.

With the recent installation of a new extension I've been able to clean this template up and made it as smart as possible in its handling of omitted parameters. ShadowWolf 03:05, 23 July 2007 (EDT)

Would it be an imposition to ask you to add a "coauthors" parameter for stories with more than one author? I'd tinker it in myself, but I'm not familiar with the variables extension so I figured it might be easier for you instead (and less likely to inadvertently break something).

translation

Could you add a "translator" option to the template, if the story is translated from other language? Or better to make another template? Also, the story needs a "creation/copyright year" option. Inry 10:21, 14 April 2008 (EDT)

I just discovered the coauthor tag which is good, but a bit awkward to use. I tried to put my name and the coauthor on the same line, but I ended up with my name twice and then the coauthor (since it fills in the missing author tag first).

Would it be possible to set up the Author tag to be repeatable, with each repetition showing up as a comma separated list? That would be the most intuitive way to use it. Or if that's not possible, let the Author tag allow multiple comma separated entries.

For example: | Author=Jetfire | Author=Jon Buck

would show:

Author Jetfire, Jon Buck

(with links to their user pages, bonus points if you can pluralize authors if there are more than one)

or if that isn't possible maybe:

| Author=Jetfire, [[User=Jon Buck|Jon Buck]]

to shwo the same as above.

As is my work around for this seems to be: | Author= Jetfire | Coauthors=, Jon Buck
